Sure.  You go to the "Archived" section, click on an email, and click 
Delete.

Normally, when you're done with a message, you (optionally) tag it, and 
then archive it.

I don't usually bother deleting; Even with occasionally large 
attachments, I'm only using 1.3GB of my available space.  I wouldn't 
have started using GMail at all if I had to delete things to make space 
for them; That was the primary turn-off for me for every other available 
webmail service that was available at the time.  You could get 10MB 
free, maybe 20MB.  GMail was announced on April Fools Day, with a 
starting mailbox size of 1GB.
